United Way of Lebanon County accepting grant applications

The United Way of Lebanon County is accepting applications from organizations for Community Needs Impact grants.

The grants, for the fiscal year beginning July 1, support programs that advance education, financial stability and health for community residents.

For the 2014-15 fiscal year, CNI grants, which are available to United Way members and nonmembers, will provide funding in amounts between $2,000 and $15,000.

Grant applications are sought for programs addressing one or more of the needs identified in the 2012 Community Needs Assessment. Copies of the document are available at the United Way office at 801 Cumberland St.

Applications will be reviewed by volunteers and United Way of Lebanon County board members in May. Grant applicants approved by the board will receive notice of awards on or near June 19.

To download a copy of the CNI grant application and obtain other CNI materials, go to www.unitedwaylebco.org and click on the Community Needs Impact Grants tab under "Where the Money Goes" menu option.

Applicants who have questions may contact Pat Daubert, financial and administrative coordinator, at pdaubert@united waylebco.or or call 717-273-8144.
